There is a very small amount of kinetic energy in striking the match, but mostly you are releasing chemical potential energy. The match head just requires an increase in temperature to make it burn
When you light a match, chemical potential energy stored in the match head is converted into thermal energy in the form of a flame through a chemical reaction called combustion. This thermal energy is then transferred to the surrounding air and materials, causing them to heat up.
When you first strike a match, there is activation energy in the form of heat which is formed through friction when the match head rubs against the matchbook. Once this energy is created, a chemical reaction takes place between the chemicals on the match head and the oxygen in the air. When this occurs, there is an exothermic chemical reaction in the form of both HEAT and LIGHT.
When you strike the match, you are converting mechanical energy to heat. Then as the light burns, you are changing chemical energy (from the intermolecular bonds in the match head) to heat and light energy (the flame).
it is a chemical change but the kind of energy created is heat and light

Thermal Energy.
Friction between the match and strike-board produces thermal energy. Heat energy causes chemical energy in the match to turn into thermal energy.
chemical -> light and heat
Thermal energy.
chemical energy
in light photons are there they have energy and energy can be transfered in form of a wave so, it can be a wave
The stored chemical energy in the battery is transfered into light energy and heat.
The electric energy will be transfered to light energy and heat energy once flashlight turn on.
When striking a match, the chemical energy stored in the match-head is transformed into heat and light energy.
A burning match produces thermal energy, in the form of heat and light, due to the combustion reaction of the match head with oxygen in the air.
in light photons are there they have energy and energy can be transfered in form of a wave so, it can be a wave
It is about pigments. they are absorbing sun light.
Chemical energy, stored in the match.
When wood is burnt, chemical energy stored in the wood is converted into thermal energy and light energy. This process releases heat and light as the wood undergoes combustion.
The stored chemical energy in the battery is transfered into light energy and heat.
Initially, chemical energy. This is converted mainly to heat, and some light.
The electric energy will be transfered to light energy and heat energy once flashlight turn on.
When striking a match, the chemical energy stored in the match-head is transformed into heat and light energy.
When a match is struck, mechanical energy from the friction between the match head and the striking surface is converted into thermal energy from the heat production that ignites the match head. This thermal energy is then transformed into light and heat energy as the match continues to burn.
The mechanical energy used to strike a match is transformed first to thermal energy. The thermal energy causes the particles in the match to release stored chemical energy, which is transformed to thermal energy and the electromagnetic energy you see as light.
A burning match produces thermal energy, in the form of heat and light, due to the combustion reaction of the match head with oxygen in the air.
